SXSW 15: Heard A Ruckus

Hill intervals

That ruckus yesterday during SXSW was our social ride and then the Flaming Lips!

Before riding around town, rode up into the hills of the 04 neighborhood. And one thing I can def ‘till you about “road,” is if you’re riding to a “dam” for a photo, that inevitably means climbing. Sharp, punchy, steps up, and then back down…

Social ride

Fair weather brought the cyclists out and we enjoyed a loop that included our annual Capital steps photo.

Needed a wide angle to fit them all in

A world premier of a film too… I asked @deathandfood who attended the Bikes v. Cars screening for a quick review and got this text back

I liked it. Happy it wasn’t all white guys. Would have like more cities shown. Still too much talking heads, but they did well with the graphics.

The presentation in the park with the bike powered screen added to the energy. Despite the late start, the crowd was invested, cheering, booing Rob Ford and good applause at the end.

Rob Ford getting booed in Austin! That’s a good ruckus.
